Baller_ lpskier Posted May 19, 2020 Baller_ Share Posted May 19, 2020 Someone with more skills than I should put together a poll for the Nationals site. The choices are Travers Ski School in Groveland FL, Bennett’s Ski School outside Baton Rouge, LA and a joint bid for a split Jr/Sr Nationals at what appears to be Cory Pickos Ski School and an adjoining lake (the note from USAWSWS was vague). The board votes soon and they want our input. Survey results from BOS may be helpful. Only folks actually planning to go (or will go if they qualify) should vote.

Baller Broussard Posted May 19, 2020 Baller Share Posted May 19, 2020 @lpskier The split bid was Cory Pickos and a site in Northwest Arkansas . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigGerald3 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Split bid sounds crazy, but we don’t know any real details. We’re good with Travers or Bennett’s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ lpskier Posted May 19, 2020 Author Baller_ Share Posted May 19, 2020 @Broussard Thanks for that clarification! Lpskier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller unksskis Posted May 19, 2020 Baller Share Posted May 19, 2020 Is there more info on the split option? Same weekend? Would all these options be on the same weekend/dates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller klindy Posted May 19, 2020 Baller Share Posted May 19, 2020 Different weekends for the split option - Under 25 (juniors thru M/W1) at Boskus's in NW Ark on Aug 6-8 & 25 and older at Pickos's on Sept 16-20. All other bids are for the same scheduled Nationals weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Not_The_Pug Posted May 19, 2020 Baller Share Posted May 19, 2020 Does anyone know if the bids are the same for Traver's and Bennett's? Would be nice to know if it is just National's as usual, just different site choice. Or are they planning something different to meet guidelines (Multi round, class "C" vs "R", other activities, etc.?). Might help people decide which site is more appealing.

Baller dave2ball Posted May 20, 2020 Baller Share Posted May 20, 2020 Having a split nationals could be hard for families that have kids and parents all skiing. How would they run the events so all could ski and watch? What is the distance between the 2 sites. Sounds like a great idea but logically I don’t think it would work to well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller JeffSurdej Posted May 20, 2020 Baller Share Posted May 20, 2020 @Not_The_Pug travers and Bennett’s pretty similar bids. 2 lakes. Travers 5 days. Bennett’s 4 days and tourney ends on Sunday. @dave2ball the split bid is different sites different times. Under 25 nats August regular dates for 3 days then over 25 nationals at corys September 16-20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
